From 2 January 2018, reports must be submitted annually in the Partnership for Sustainable Textiles. Every member is required to prepare a progress report, update their baseline and submit a new Roadmap for the year by 30 April 2018. All data is to be submitted using the TexPerT online tool, which has been revised on the basis of the feedback received from you last year. Your access details from last year are still valid.

The Partnership Secretariat has put together a range of materials to help you prepare your reports:

TexPerT also contains pointers and links to further relevant information and support resources in the Members Area. Please take particular note of the following materials available on the natural and man-made fibres:

We have put together notes on how to make an inventory of natural and chemical fibres in a Guideline.

As an example, we have made the BCI calculator available to you for making your inventory of natural fibres.

For members who procure cotton and new wool, the Cotton and New wool information papers provide indications for individual binding targets, recognised standards systems and provision of alternative evidence.

In the coming weeks we will also offer you an introduction to the changes made to TexPerT and the question grid in the form of webinars, where you will have the opportunity to ask questions. The following dates have already been set:

The link for accessing the relevant webinar is provided under dates in the Members Area. A recording of the introductory webinar to the Review Process and TexPerT can also be accessed later from the Members Area.
